My Approach

What’s in a name? For a while I was searching for the perfect name for my psychotherapy practice. It was very important that the name captures my world view, who I am, and what I give my clients. When I finally arrived at Positive Edge Counseling, I knew that I got it. 3 words. Each one captures a theme, yet together – it is me: 

Positive – my outlook as a human being and as a therapist is that positivity, acceptance and empathy are the key stones for healing and for moving forward.

Edge – the dictionary defines edge “a line or border at which a surface terminates; a verge; a brink; an area next to a steep drop”. Life presents challenges, often scary, overwhelming, or threatening our sense of well-being. What do we need when we face the edge? How do we navigate to a safe ground? My mission is to help and guide transforming CHANGE AND RESOLUSION of a challenge into a positive, meaningful outcome.

Counseling – My commitment to clients is to provide professional guidance and assistance in resolving emotional, personal, or relational problems. Counseling requires knowledge, skills and a passionate drive to be there for others.

 

So this is what I do. In three words. Positive Edge Counseling - Navigating life’s challenges with expertise and care.

Looking forward to seeing you.
